Ⅱ.完成句子
1.The goods will be well packed after ________________(認真檢查),and sent to the named port for sailing.(inspect)
解析:考查句子的省略。inspect的主語應為goods,當主、從句主語前后一致時,可以采用“連詞+分詞”的省略形式;由于主語與動詞是被動關系,故用過去分詞。
答案:carefully inspected
2.As we drew closer,I could see a whale ________________(遭受攻擊)by a pack of about six other killers.(attack)
解析:考查補語結構。本句運用了“see +賓語+ doing”的結構形態(tài);由語境提示可知“遭受攻擊”應是被動進行時,故用“see +賓語+ being done”結構。
答案:being attacked
3.No one has come up with a convincing explanation of ________________(恐龍為什么滅絕了).(die)
解析:考查賓語從句。本題是why引導的賓語從句,“滅絕”應表達為die out。
答案:why dinosaurs died out
4.Mr.Johnson insisted that the problem worthy of attention ________________(討論) at the meeting.(discuss)
解析:考查虛擬語氣。 insist引導的賓語從句要用虛擬語氣,即“(should)+ 動詞原形”;主語 problem與“討論”之間是被動關系,因此答案為(should) be discussed。
答案:(should) be discussed
5.As ________________(空氣正在受到污染),many kinds of wild animals are dying out.(pollute)
解析:考查動詞的時態(tài)、語態(tài)。
答案:the air is being polluted
6.________________(正如報告里所說),the new machine will work twice as fast,thus reducing costs.(put)
解析:考查定語從句。放在句首作主語的關系代詞應用as,由于是被動關系,故答案為As is put in the report。
答案:As is put in the report
7.Had I known about this computer program,a huge amount of time and energy ________________(省下了).(save)
解析:考查虛擬語氣。從句是省略if的條件句,而且是完成時態(tài),因此對應的主句也應是完成時。
答案:would have been saved
8.It is for the first time in my life ________________(我認識到了) the importance the government has attached to the environmental protection.(appreciate)
解析:考查強調(diào)句型。由句式結構可知本題是一個強調(diào)句型,由for the first time in my life可知“認識到了”應用現(xiàn)在完成時,因此答案為that I have appreciated。
答案:that I have appreciated
9.At present,lots of food,water,tents,and medicine ________________(正在運往)from all over China and other parts of the world to the earthquake-stricken areas.(transport)
解析:考查主謂一致和被動語態(tài)。本題主語是lots of food,water,tents,and medicine,因此謂語用復數(shù)形式;由提示語可知是被動進行時。
答案:are being transported
10.So difficult ________________(我感到)it to live in an English-speaking country that I determined to learn English well.(feel)
解析:考查倒裝結構和時態(tài)?!癝o+ adj./adv.”置于句首時,主句謂語要用部分倒裝形式;由語境可知“感到”的動作應指過去,因此要提取助動詞did來倒裝。
答案:did I feel

【解題導語】 在這個世界上有很多國家、很多人非常關心“戰(zhàn)爭、金錢和權力”這些所謂重要的東西,但很少有人會關注“全球變暖”這個問題,或認為個人對“全球變暖”無能為力。對此我們難道真的束手無策嗎?文章將會告訴我們答案。
1.A.When B.As
C.How D.Though
解析:選D。從上下文可知,此處表示轉折——“雖然我認同以上提到的東西很重要”,所以用though。
2.A.depend B.focus
C.hang D.remark
解析:選B。從上下文可知,作者認為每個人都應該開始更多地關注(focus on)全球變暖問題,focus on是固定詞組,表示“關注,致力于”。
3.A.annoy B.interrupt
C.a(chǎn)ffect D.confuse
解析:選C。全球變暖不但會影響(affect)我們整個國家和我們這一代人,也會影響整個世界(world)和我們的后代,annoy表示“使惱怒”,interrupt表示“打斷”,confuse表示“使困惑”,均與語境不符。
4.A.world B.continent
C.industry D.climate
解析:選A。參見3題解析。
5.A.failing B.completing
C.changing D.occurring
解析:選D。全球變暖正在發(fā)生中(be occurring),因為過去幾年天氣越來越暖和了。fail表示“失敗”;complete表示“完成”;change表示“改變”,均與語境不符。
6.A.lies in B.results in
C.suffers from D.escapes from
解析:選B。天氣變暖導致(result in)了南極洲冰層的融化。result in“導致”,符合語境。lie in表示“在于...”;suffer from表示“遭受……”;escape from表示“逃脫……”。
7.A.reduce B.rise
C.drop D.move
解析:選B。冰雪的融化會很快導致水平面上升(rise)。
8.A.as if B.in case
C.even though D.if only
解析:選A。很多人都會忽視(全球變暖)這個問題,因為他們都覺得似乎(as if)自己對全球變暖無能為力,而且他們還有更重要(important)的事情要去擔心。in case表示“萬一,以免……”;even though表示“即使……”;if only表示“但愿”,都與語境不符。
9.A.popular B.suitable
C.important D.difficult
解析:選C。參見8題解析。popular表示“受歡迎的”;suitable表示“合適的”;difficult表示“困難的”,都與語境不符。

解析:選A。此處承接上文,如果我們都這樣做(do)的話,即都不在乎全球變暖。
11.A.protected B.strengthened
C.destroyed D.surrounded
解析:選C。我們的臭氧層將會受到破壞(destroy),protect表示“保護”;strengthen表示“加強”;surround表示“包圍”,都與語境不符。
12.A.unlimited B.natural
C.recycled D.industrial
解析:選B。從語境知,我們應該盡全力來限制對地球自然(natural)資源的利用,保持空氣的清潔。natural resources表示“自然資源”。
13.A.Therefore B.Otherwise
C.However D.Instead
解析:選B。否則(otherwise),我們的后代將會遭受由我們這一代犯下的錯誤(mistakes)而帶來的痛苦。therefore表示“因此”;however表示“然而”;instead表示“反而”。

C.decisions D.mistakes
解析:選D。參見13題解析。
15.A.continuing B.a(chǎn)rriving
C.improving D.disappearing
解析:選A。一些人也許覺得他們無法阻止全球變暖的持續(xù)進行(continuing),據(jù)此選A項。
16.A.physical B.mental
C.national D.worldwide
解析:選D。但是如果我們每個人都出一點力來保持空氣清潔的話,那么,這將成為世界性的(worldwide)力量。
17.A.slightly B.fully
C.hardly D.slowly
解析:選B。根據(jù)語境,造成污染的因素是多方面的,有些我們也無法完全(fully)改變,這其中也包括汽車燃油的問題,但我們至少(at least)能對此進行一定的調(diào)整。slightly表示“輕微地”;hardly表示“幾乎不”;slowly表示“慢慢地”,均與語境不符。
18.A.at least B.a(chǎn)t most
C.a(chǎn)t first D.a(chǎn)t last

Ⅳ.閱讀理解

(2011年東北三省四市聯(lián)考)It is a hot summer day,and you feel thirsty.A friend gives you a glass of cold lemonade.How do you feel when you see the glass?Will you describe your feeling as happiness or as pleasure?I believe you will say it is a feeling of pleasure.There is a connection between these two kinds of feelings,and sometimes one causes the other,but they are not the same.Pleasure is more dependent on the five senses while happiness is independent of them.
When you are happy,little unpleasant events usually do not disturb you.When you are unhappy,you feel as if everything is against you.You may compensate_for it by eating chocolate and sweets because this gives you pleasure,yet you stay unhappy.A person may smoke cigarettes because it gives him pleasure,yet this does not make him happier,especially if he knows the fact that it is not good for his health.
The physical world is always in a changing state.At each moment a new thing is being created,changed,transformed and then destroyed.This is the normal state of things and no one can change it.If we stay still in a certain state,we are sure to experience unhappiness sooner or later.On the other hand,if we adjust to the environment,nothing can influence our moods.Then outer events have nothing to do with our inner joy of mind.
The room of the mind is filled with worry or fear.If you are free of thinking about them,the room has been emptied,and then you will see what is happening and experience it.When your mind stays quiet,you will see that happiness comes from the inside.
【解題導語】 文章主要論述了滿足感(pleasure)和幸福感(happiness)的不同。滿足感更多地依賴于人的五種感官,而幸福感則獨立于五種感官外;幸福感來自于人的內(nèi)心。
1.What does the underlined phrase “compensate for” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A.to make a suitable payment for
B.to let out your anger for
C.to provide with a balancing effect for
D.to solve the problems for
解析:選C。詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第二段第二、三句可知,當你不高興時,你會感覺好像一切都在和你作對,于是你可能會通過吃巧克力和糖果等方法平衡自己這種不快樂的心理,故compensate for意為“補償”,選C項。
2.According to the passage,in which of the following situations can you feel happy?
A.A friend gives you a glass of cold lemonade when you feel thirsty.
B.You eat chocolate and sweets when you feel as if everything is against you.
C.Smoke cigarettes even though you know the fact that it is not good for your health.
D.You are free from worry or fear when your mind stays quiet.
解析:選D。細節(jié)理解題。由文章最后一段可知,如果我們的內(nèi)心不受擔心和恐懼的影響,能夠保持平靜的心態(tài),那么幸福就會從內(nèi)心深處自然流露,選D項。
3.We can learn from the passage__________.
A.happiness is more dependent on the five senses
B.pleasure sometimes arouses happiness
C.you feel happy when nothing around you changes in a certain state
D.you feel unhappy because you have to adjust to the environment
解析:選B。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段的倒數(shù)第二句話可推知B項正確,滿足感(pleasure)有時候可能帶來幸福感(happiness)。從第一段最后一句可知,A項錯誤;由第三段可知,C、D兩項表述錯誤。
4.Which can be the best title for the passage?
A.Pleasure Leads to Happiness
B.Happiness Changes Us
C.Happiness Is Within Us
D.Stay a Quiet Mind
解析:選C。主旨大意題。通讀全文可知,C項“幸福在我們心中”最能概括解題導語,即幸福是一種心情。同時文章結尾句也點出了主題。
